AFAIK it was never proven that Hitler committed suicide - they only found his burnt corpse.

No, he was probably killed by an American spy called "B.J." Blazcowicz :-P j/k

On May 5, 1945, the Soviets located the partially burned remains of a man and a woman near the bunker. A commission of forensic specialists overseen by SMERSH (Soviet Counterintelligence) examined them and concluded that they were Hitler and Braun and that cyanide was the cause of death. But these findings were kept secret, apparently because Stalin did not trust them or because he wanted a weapon to hold in reserve in case someone turned up claiming to be Hitler. Soviet officials meanwhile issued statements that they had no direct evidence of Hitler's death and that he might have escaped.

Meanwhile, the Soviets captured and sent 70 members of Hitler's immediate entourage to Russia. The key people -- eyewitnesses in the bunker -- were extensively interrogated and then imprisoned. A second commission in April 1946 not only reexamined the medical evidence but, using the captured inhabitants of the bunker, recreated the death of Hitler on-site to iron out the inconsistencies in testimony and test the truthfulness of the various witnesses. In the course of this 1946 investigation, Soviet officials not only turned up bloodstains on Hitler's sofa; they re-excavated the burial site and found skull fragments, the remnants of Hitler's uniform and the remains of his dog.

The convincing findings of the second Soviet commission were an embarrassment to Moscow in two respects. First, they revealed that the first commission had mistakenly diagnosed the cause of Hitler's death. Second, a self-inflicted gunshot was thought to be the more courageous way for Hitler to go. So the Soviets officially remained silent on the death of Hitler, shelving the evidence and analysis in a file labeled "Operation Myth."

Whatever, I have just been told that it was not proven whether he DID commit suicide or not.
Thanks for the enlightenment.
